Slur to bar 280 in sources |

Longer slur suggested by the editors |
In A the R.H. phrase mark ends abruptly between the last two notes in this bar, so both FC (→GE) and FE (→EE) led it to the last crotchet. However, a comparison with analogous b. 382-383 shows that such a literal interpretation of the phrase mark of A is incorrect, since the second time Chopin dragged the slur further, to the beginning of b. 383. At the same time, the way the ending of the slur is written down there, differently than in b. 280, suggests a conscious, deliberate movement of the pen. Therefore, in the main text we suggest a longer phrase mark.
